Her older brother, who has cerebral palsy, runs over the all-powerful CEO of the Gu family.
To save her brother, Zuo Ziyi is forced to marry Second Master Gu, a hot-tempered man paralyzed from the waist down and confined to his bed.
To get revenge, he makes her suffer every torment imaginable.
Exhausted in body and mind, she makes a miserable escape, only for Second Master Gu to drag her back again and again. “Run again, and I’ll break your legs!”
Later, she becomes pregnant. Faced with his overwhelming tenderness and care, she can’t help but fall for him...
Just when she thinks her hardships are finally over, he leaves right in front of her, carrying his pregnant childhood sweetheart in his arms.
When he comes looking for her again, all he finds is a pool of blood on the floor.
He searches the entire city, looking for her like a madman, refusing to let go. “Honey, I was wrong. Give me one more chance!”
Looking at him in his wretched state, Zuo Ziyi smiles seductively and walks away without looking back. “Second Master, heard the saying that affection arriving too late is worth less than grass?”
People later say that Second Master Gu Yunting is a hopeless romantic. He passes over his childhood sweetheart, a perfect match from a family of equal standing, and instead spoils a country girl rotten.
